Karma Poem by Justin Reinalda

Life is just not what I wanted it to be
Because what I lost is what was closest to me

I try to move on and push into something new
But it always fails in comparison, the best part of me was you

It bothers me that the only time I ever feel real
Is when I feel like these wounds won't ever heal

I'm surrounded by a past I can't have, you see
I've given all of myself to people that leave me

So the world keeps spinning and life keeps going
I know the Bible preaches karma, you'll get what you're sowing

I'm unwilling to put my standards up for sale
"Thank U, Next" is just a guaranteed way to fail

Knowing how it all works kinda feels like a curse
But I'd rather feel despair than make things worse

I don't like to ask for anything, but if I could
If I have to stick around, please give me something good
